What a shame Dave Hubbard (Letters, November 26) missed the wide range of water efficiency initiatives run by Southern Water throughout this year and previously.

Many of these have, of course, been prominently featured in The Argus and, as a result, I'm sure regular readers will be more than aware of them.

Indeed, I would thank them for using water wisely during what has been one of the driest summer and autumn periods on record.

As a resident of Uckfield, Mr Hubbard's water is supplied by South East Water, not Southern, which has also been advising its customers not to waste water.

If any customer of Southern Water wishes to help conserve water a free information pack is available by calling 0845 278 0845.
